'Portrait of François Henri d`Harcourt' is an exceptional piece by the French painter Jean-Honoré Fragonard, renowned for his exuberant and hedonistic style in the late Rococo period. Executed by oil on a large canvas, this work is one of Fragonard’s numerous undated paintings, but certainly among his most admired. As suggested by its title, the painting is a portrait of François Henri d`Harcourt, a notable figure during the Ancien Régime.

The masterful execution reflects Fragonard’s distinctive talent and his consummate mastery of portraiture.
